Title: BoldGenre: Synthpop, Dance-Pop, Power PopLength: 4:15Format:CD single, Digital DownloadRecorded: November 6th - December 4th, 2012Release Date: December 10th, 2012Label: Titanic RecordsWritten: September 22nd - December 2nd, 2012Writer(s): Pixie Love, Sunny MonroeProducer: Sunny Monroe, Pixie Love|Background|After the much predicted success of her first single Walk Alone, Pixie's back with an all new track that is sure to get the internet buzzing again over her. Pixie's instant success also helped her in getting signed with the Teen Titans very own label, Titanic Records where she was the first act signed. Hovering on a #1 hit single, it was time for her to show her longevity with a new single that was released in Finland on December 6th and has already been received with warm ears. The new single Bold is a very strong sounding with a catchy chorus and almost haunting lyrics. Pixie took to her Twitter account to share some of the lyrics from the song as well as teasing that this would be an amazing new treat for her fairies. This is the second single to be released from her upcoming album in 2013, Imagine. When she talked with Yahoo! online, Pixie said that her album would be very much diverse and filled with some unpredictable songs much like the Finnish singer's personality.
This time she took to a very familiar name in the music industry today, Sunny Monroe, who has written hits for the likes of Isabel, Jennifer Armstrong, and more. After seeing the commercial success of the single in her home country of Finland, Pixie decided to release the song a week earlier in the U.S. and not leaving her fans "in desire of another tune" from the singer. So far the song has been hit by critics in majority of positive reviews, with the occasional bad review thrown in there. However, this didn't hurt Pixie at all as it has already soared to #1 on the charts in Finland. The big question now is will it do the same in the United States or was Pixie just a one hit wonder?|Song Description|"Bold" is an uptempo power pop, dance pop, and electropop song with influences of dance music incorporated throughout the song. The song begins with electronic arrangements that evolve into a pop rock sound. The song is everything that Pixie is about as an artist and as a person, describing some traumatic events with the lyrics and yet inviting the listener on a journey that is known as Pixie's imagination. She sings with a very energetic and vengeful voice that sounds much different than the innocent and sexy sound from her last single. She shows off her dark and creative side by painting a picture of a murder, one that is yet to be determined if it's even true or not, but you can't help but to wander if any of these events really did take place. It opens with Pixie singing the lines, "Blood on shoes, now I’m running away from the red and blue/I can’t stop, now I’ve finally got you to be where you belong" all the meanwhile the infectious beat is booming behind her vocals.
The song talks about the feeling of guilty a person has after they have done a dirty deed. Pixie goes on to sing about her feeling bold in the sense that she feels like she can get away with her crime and is somewhat intoxicated while performing the crime. Even though the verses sound wordy, she manages to sing and pull them together with the chorus in which she sings the hook, "Feel like being bold" The bridge is one of the highlights of the song where Pixie gives her all in what seems like an ongoing description of her during the song in which she ultimately decides to make a run for it and she feels like she has done the right thing. "Bold" gives us that rebellious side of Pixie that she has yet to show. Not only can she be a cute and innocent looking woman but now she sounds as if she is not the lady to mess with. Even though the message of the song is almost sinister, Pixie still remains true to her cuteness with the adding of the almost taunting sounds of her chants, "Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na" The single is set to be released on December 10th, 2012 in the U.S. and December 13th Worldwide. |Pixie's Comments|Quote:"Bold is one of my favorite songs I've ever written. It's really in your face and fun, lots of play on words. I wrote this a while back but I didn't finish it until about a month ago. I wanted something different from my last single, as it was all about being yourself and being free. This single is more about murder and essentially getting away with it (Giggles). I like to think of it as a revenge song but in good taste you know? A lot of people have a feeling in them about someone who they want to kill, no lie. I know I've wanted to chop a few heads off myself. It's a story about someone realizing they can do better and be much higher if they got rid of the dead weight that was hurting them and then going on with your life with no regrets. I'm Bonnie and my teddy bear is Clyde so we ran away together to get away from the evil. It's all about rebellion and I'm all for not being the typical standard to people. I will tell you right now so there's no controversy; this song is dedicated to my last label because I love you that much.
The single cover is supposed to be as amazingly creepy as it looks. You've got this cute little girl who has obviously some evil in her. That's me in this song. You wouldn't expect it, you wouldn't expect her to do something as vicious as murder but people surprise you ever day. I loved this cover and I knew I had to use it for this song. It exceeds all expectations of what I had for the single cover." [Lyrics][Verse 1] Blood on shoes, now I’m running away from the red and blue I can’t stop, now I’ve finally got you to be where you belong I’m on fire, I’m on fire, tried to blow me away Not tonight, not tonight because you gotta pay I won’t quit, never sit, when the going gets tough All alone, on my own because nobody’s home
[Chorus] My bottle’s almost empty; you think you’ve found some luck But I won’t give up easy (Feel like being bold) You think you’ve left me feeling, like I don’t care at all The curtains start to fall (Not doing what I’m told) Thought I’d figured it out but now I don’t know But now I don’t know, But now I don’t know My bottle’s almost empty, think I need a refill But I won’t give up easy (Feel like being bold)
[Verse 2] Blood stained eyes, filled with tears that wonder what wasn’t right Dropped my hand, made the final decision to leave you for dead Picked the lock, I can’t stop, Till you throw away the key Kiss my lips, take a sip, I won’t remember at all I won’t quit, never sit, when the going gets tough All alone, on my own because nobody’s home
[Chorus] My bottle’s almost empty; you think you’ve found some luck But I won’t give up easy (Feel like being bold) You think you’ve left me feeling, like I don’t care at all The curtains start to fall (Not doing what I’m told) Thought I’d figured it out but now I don’t know But now I don’t know, But now I don’t know My bottle’s almost empty, think I need a refill But I won’t give up easy (Feel like being bold)
Na na na na - da da da da Na na na na - da da da da (Feel like being bold) Na na na na - da da da da Na na na na - da da da da (Feel like being bold)
[Bridge] I feel sick, not legit Can’t believe what I did I won’t fear, nothing’s here It’s time I better leave You won’t know, saved my soul Know that I better run Never done, it was fun Time to head for the sun
[Chorus] My bottle’s almost empty; you think you’ve found some luck But I won’t give up easy (Feel like being bold) You think you’ve left me feeling, like I don’t care at all The curtains start to fall (Not doing what I’m told) Thought I’d figured it out but now I don’t know But now I don’t know, But now I don’t know My bottle’s almost empty, think I need a refill But I won’t give up easy (Feel like being bold)
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na (Feel like being bold) Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na (Feel like being bold)
